Description of work
This network will bring together existing networks (e.g. Shore Watch from UK, Coastwatch Europe, MarLin) that together with MarBEF will give central support for science information, (e.g. taxonomic, ecological, activities, threats) and would be the base for exchange of information about the different regions in Europe. National nodes will be created so information in each country would be exchanged in each national language. Links with biodiversity databases, real-time information systems and so on will be added.
